Ex. 13 Read the information about differences in writing an application letter and a cover letter.
There are subtle differences between application letters and cover letters. However, the terms cover and application are sometimes used interchangeably.
While both documents accompany a résumé, understanding their differences will help you organize your documents during the job application process.
| Application letter Letters of application are used for open positions (and letters of inquiry express interest in an organization when you're not sure if there are any openings). An application letter is a specific type of cover letter that is used on an application. Application letters can accompany job applications, but they can also go with applications for admissions to schools, applications for grants or any other types of application materials you can think of. They are usually more detailed than general cover letters. For example, an application letter for a job should contain at least two to three paragraphs explaining why you're interested in the job, highlighting your qualifications, requesting an interview and thanking the reviewer for his time. | Cover letter Cover letters aren't just for job applications. Cover letters can be used on any collection of documents or media for the purpose of describing reasons for sending them. Cover letters don't always need to be very long. |
Ex. 14 When you are writing a letter of application, it is the best to use fixed phrases and expressions. Match English and Ukrainian equivalents. Learn them.
